(2)     the use of facsimiles of the signatures of all officers of the public body required or permitted or sign the bonds if authentication of the bonds, by manual signature, by a trustee or other agent is provided for as a condition of the validity of the bonds, and no such bonds shall be valid unless authenticated, and, if applicable, for the use of a facsimile of the seal of the public body;
